pray 4 u - jason chu lyrics

[chorus] * travis atreo
when the waters rise, when the water falls
know drought, know flood, yea we been thru it all
been down in mud, we tryna shake it off
i been feelin lost, answer when i call?
the waters rise, and the water falls
know drought, know flood, yea we been thru it all
been down in mud, we tryna shake it off
i been feelin lost, answer when i call?

[verse] * jason chu
white pastors
tried to teach me them chapters
like they ain’t mention asia in the scriptures, i was livid
white jesus in pictures devoid of pigment
he had melanin, that portrayal there is just a fiction
once i didn’t know no differently
james hal cone taught me that the cross was a lynchin tree
daniel lee showed me the god who sees us
now i can’t go back to that cheap sh*t, that’s caesar’s
see the way that they spin it like calisthenics
take our real pain and abstract it away with academics
like my grandmama prayers ain’t super effective
faith doesn’t come from scholarship but the trenches
cross on me, god near me, i could go cross eyed
gofundme for bail, now that’s how i tithe
it don’t hit in hard life, then it ain’t god like
i know it ain’t easy, i know we gon make it all right
[chorus] * travis atreo
when the waters rise, when the water falls
know drought, know floods, yea we been thru it all
been down in mud, this rain can wash it off
i know god is love and still the blood is strong

[verse] * jason chu
korean pastors, bible study them chapters
jump onto a beat and i’m gone like i was raptured
no cap sh*t at confession, this rap sh*t is a blessin
grateful for mistakes that turned into lessons
since a adolescent i knew i was good at testin
didn’t always pass, but i steady made progression
kept the faith, doubled down, dedicated vision all this off*white on me like i’m dressed for a baptism
standin in the sanctuary i made a commitment
flyin evry month like i’m goin on a mission, trip coast to coast in coach like at the outlet
you see the glow up, my holy spirit outfit
new stakes at new tables like restoration hardware
this ain’t our land, this is god’s air
i was taught to show face and go ape
and evry time before i eat to say grace

[chorus] * travis atreo
when the waters rise, when the water falls
know drought, know floods, yea we been thru it all
been down in mud, this rain can wash it off
i know god is love and still the blood is strong
